The Dawn of Astronomy: A Study of Temple Worship and Mythology of the Ancient Egyptians

Product Description

This celebrated study — derived from Lockyer's belief that ancient Egyptian monuments were constructed "in strict relation to the stars" — explores the relationship between astronomy and architecture in the age of the pharaohs. The author addresses one of the many points already extensively investigated by Egyptologists: the chronology of the kings of Egypt.

If you are interested in this book, you’ll LOVE “Lost Star,” by Cruttenden. You also might want to read Swami Sri Yukteswar’s little book, “The Science of Religion,” – even though it requires sustained concentration on every word. More accessible are related passages in Paramahansa’s “Autobiography of a Yogi.”
